Lovely home, great location and very relaxing

The instructions for accessing the keys and underground car parking were very clear and easy to follow.The accommodation is very modern, nicely furnished and most importantly for us, spotlessly clean. The main lounge/diner area is spacious with comfortable sofas to slob out in front of the large TV after a busy day. The kitchen is very modern and more than adequate providing the full range of appliances. Our only complaint in this area was the cooker hob. This was a very modern device with touch controls to turn on the heat. Unfortunately we had real problems understanding how to operate it, a clear handbook/user guide would have been very useful here. The welcome basket on arrival was a thoughtful touch.

The bedrooms are large with comfortable beds and testament to their comfort was everyone slept well during our stay. With three bathrooms available there were never any queues getting ready in the mornings.

We also enjoyed lovely walks in the evening, down to the ferry or along the wonderful nearby beaches.

Overall a thoroughly enjoyable long weekend and would love to visit again in the future.More

We visited as a family of 5 - grandparents, parents and child all enjoyed our excellent holiday with this beautiful and spacious apartment as our base. It had every facility we needed and more. The welcome hamper was an example of attention to detail. The apartment is well placed for the surrounding beautiful countryside and lovely beaches, with plenty to see and do.

The apartment is outstanding. We stayed for a few days in May (apologies for the late review) and are already looking at dates for our next visit.. The apartment is modern, airy, fab decor and large enough for everyone to have their own space. The cleanliness is second to none and there is everything you could possibly need in the kitchen including a well stocked mini fridge.. We travelled as a family of 3 adults and 3 children, the apartment is very child friendly. I would have no hesitation in recommending thie apartment to anyone - the location is fantastic and the neighbours are really friendly. Thank you Jacqueline, we had a fantastic time and will be back soon. Everything was easy to manage from the booking to arrival and collection of the keys - effortless.. The apartment is so well equipped and the location great that we would be happy to stay off season/ winter months as well..

The booking and arrival instructions were easy and straightforward. The owner was pleasant to deal with and answered questions promptly.

The apartment itself is a good size and beautifully appointed. We loved that it had 2 en-suites and also a separate family bathroom, towels were fluffy & plentiful. The kitchen facilities are great and there is also a separate drinks fridge with wine/beer & an honesty box - lovely idea if you run out! There was a welcome box which was much appreciated.

The secure parking/garage underneath the building is a little tight if you have a large car (ours being a 7-seater)! We managed and it was good for loading/unloading however we also parked out on the road a couple of times as there are no restrictions.

All in all we found the apartment to be in a great location within easy walk to the beach/shops and ferry and were pleased with all the facilities.

Would definitely check to see if this apartment is free on our next visit to this beautiful part of the country.

A lovely spacious flat, within walking distance of the beach (though the main Sandbanks beach is quite a trek). Only criticisms: winter weight duvets are too hot and balcony looks out onto backs of flats and grotty garden/building site below + it's difficult to park in the road and there's only one space available in the underground car park.

Dear Maggy. Thank you for raising the point about the duvets being too hot. I am replacing these with summer duvets with immediate effect (particularly in view of the extremely hot weather we have at the moment). Best regards Jacqueline

The flat is really lovely and very clean. Nice touch to have a hamper of provisions to greet us. A few slight niggles however. The duvets are tog 10 and in summer that's way too thick so you'll boil in bed.

Furthermore there are building works and scaffolding round the ground floor of the building which means noise during the weekdays and this should really be noted in the description of the property to be fair.

The flat above the flat were incredibly noisy one night having a huge party until 3am. Obviously this is a third party noise but means it's not the most peaceful of places I've stayed in.

Dear Simon. I have just approved your review to be placed on Trip Adviser but I am extremely sorry that you have had your stay disrupted by noise. The balcony below this apartment had leaked into the ground floor apartment and as a result the property had some NHBC works carried out, which including erecting scaffolding at the rear of the building. The scaffold was only to the 1st floor balcony, so did not encroach on Flat 4, Shore Point. I gave guests the option to cancel bookings during the major works, although only one did. It was my understanding that the works, apart from ‘making good’, had been completed so there should have been no disruption to your stay. I have approached the management company to ascertain the current position. In respect of the party in the flat above, I have raised this with the owners as there is no loud noise permitted beyond 11.00 pm in the block. I have e-mailed you separately with an offer of an ex-gracia payment as a gesture of goodwill to compensate for the noise disruption. Despite your experience this time I do hope you would consider Shore point again in the future. The apartment is usually the most peaceful and tranquil of locations as shown in the reviews of previous guests over the past 4 years. With kindest regards Jacqueline Moore
